I know you.
You have a burning desire to create. A hunger.
Whenever you’re not following that creative passion (or passions), you’re living in a state of of low-grade misery. And yet… getting yourself to actually do it is just. So. Darn. Hard.
I know, because I’ve been there.
I spent years (years!) not doing the thing that made me feel most alive. I didn’t have time.
Or it wasn’t “important” enough.
Or it wasn’t going to pay the bills, so how could I justify it?
And little by little, my soul began to shrivel.
That's me! Melissa Dinwiddie, Artist & Inspirationalist, and owner of LivingACreativeLife.com
I was definitely not living a creative life…
And now? I’m living a more abundantly creative life than I ever dreamed.
What changed?
I had to decide to put my creative passions at the center. I had to surround myself with people who got it.
Because isolation is a dream-killer. And even if you know something intellectually, sometimes the only way to really integrate stuff is to have it reflected back to you by real, live human beings.
You know, stuff like the Universe WANTS you to create! Like your creative expression is DIVINE. Like it is IMPORTANT that you do this.
My goal is to get you doing your creative thing.
Can you imagine how wonderful the world would be if we ALL were? THAT’s my dream!
For some time now, I’ve been working with creatives one-on-one and in small circles, using my X-Ray Vision Goggles to find the doorways in their Sticking Points. Getting them unstuck, sparked, stoked and creating, and man has it been fun!
But I realized I really wanted a way to spread the deliciousness of my Creative Ignition Circle small group-coaching masterminds out to more people.
(Because after all, there’s only one of me, and I only take 4 members in a Circle at a time.)
So I decided to build a home for anyone with a hunger to create and a big heart. (Because it’s about supporting each other, having each others’ backs, lifting each other up so that each one of us rises with the tide.)
Enter… the
What is the Creative Ignition Club?
It’s open-heartedness and sharing. It’s playfulness and experimentation. It’s vulnerability and safety. It’s validation and accountability and empowerment and self-love.
In a nutshell, it’s a vibrant community of creatives. And a lot more.

Testimonial:
“I can’t tell you how much it means to have a “connection” with someone who knows this can be done because she’s done it herself.
First thing I did when I woke up was to “check in” – What a wonderful way to start my day, feeling supported and like I have a “special place” where there are people like me!
It’s a brand new feeling for me, and I love it!!”-Megan Everett

What happens in the Creative Ignition Club?
Lots of stuff. Here’s a snapshot:
The Clubhouse Lobby (like a private Facebook wall just for creatives!)
There’s a Private Forum that’s much richer and juicier than your typical online forum. More like a private Facebook just for creatives. A digital Clubhouse where we share what’s going on in our creative lives, help each other brainstorm, work on whatever gets in the way and push each other forward toward our biggest visions for ourselves.
- Amazing, brilliant, big-hearted people, who actively support each other. The love and brilliance in this group is a-ma-zing.
- Really, really good listeners, with ideas and possibilities to suggest that you may never have imagined in your wildest dreams.
- Special calls and “hangout” opportunities just for members (we call each other “Igniters.”)
- PLUS: Discounts on (almost) everything I create for Living A Creative Life — including coaching, consulting, e-cources, downloads, etc. (Not including programs I create with partners, or e-books sold on Amazon or iTunes or elsewhere, which I don’t have control over offering discounts for!)
- PLUS (again): The Club is kinda like my “new stuff laboratory,” so members (Igniters) sometimes even get to help me develop new stuff!

Questions, darling? I’ve got answers
And if you don’t find them here, shoot me an email.
When will I get access to all the good stuff inside?
Pretty much immediately after you pay. It all depends on whether the server gods are smiling, but in most cases you’ll see a “register now” link on your screen within seconds of making your payment, AND you’ll get a confirmation email within minutes, saying your membership has been approved, with a link to the registration page (just in case it hasn’t already appeared for you.)
From there you just register by filling out a short form (user name, name, password, email – the usual – plus a few optional questions.
Once my robots get your registration info they’ll send you back an activation link. Click that link and voilá! You’re IN!
Will my credit card continue to be charged?
Yes, unless you choose to cancel (which I’ve made very easy — literally one click!), your card will be charged annually for another year of membership.
Wow, this price is amazing! Will it be going up?
I have no plans to raise prices right now, but I can’t guarantee the price will stay the same. However, once you join at this price, as long as you continue with your membership your price will not go up.
It sounds so awesome! But I’m super-busy, and I don’t know if I have time to participate…
Oh, do I get that!
The first thing I can say about that is that you don’t have to participate in any particular way. My personal philosophy is “whatever works is right.”
If you love interacting online, then you’ll adore the Clubhouse! And how much — or little — you interact inside is totally up to you. If online forums aren’t your thing, you’ll still get all the discounts on e-courses, coaching, consulting, periodic calls and hangout opportunities just for Igniters, all of which will add up to well over the membership price over the course of the year. (Plus you’ll sometimes even get to help me develop new stuff, which is just pretty cool, and, well, priceless.)
Also, if you can’t make the phone calls & hangouts, you can still listen in afterwards, because I post all of the recordings on the site.
Do you do refunds?
Nope. And here’s why: The Club is a safe bubble for working on our stuff, which means stuff comes up. Letting you run away when you get scared or things get hard, or when the Resistance tells you that you can’t do this for whatever reason, would be utterly irresponsible of me.
My commitment is to help you past the Resistance. And to foster a community that welcomes you with an open heart and helps you feel supported and comfortable.
And even if you never interact in the forums, you still get all the discounts, periodic group phone calls, and sneak peeks into new products and experiences as I brew them up. The value of all that combined is worth well more than the price.
Before you sign up, check with yourself to make sure this is really what you want. If it is, I want you in the Club! If it’s not, or if it just isn’t good timing, that’s perfectly okay! We’ll meet up when the time is right. And you can always hang out with me on the blog, on Facebook, and at the free hangouts I host once a month.
What if I have technical problems?
Sometimes technical issues arise, but my commitment is to patiently and lovingly tend to you until everything is made right.
What if I don’t have a PayPal account?
No problem! Just click the Buy Now button and you’ll be walked through the steps to create one — it’s easy and free!

But sign up below and I’ll add you to the waiting list for the next time the Club opens to new members.
P.S.
The members of my 4-person group coaching mastermind (the Creative Ignition Circle) tell me on every phone call how much difference it makes to them to have a community of other creatives to check in with – other real, live people, who are not their family, to bounce off of. That’s exactly what I created the Club for. If you know this is what you’re looking for, I look forward to you joining us!
